Global Climate Change - The Exploratorium
With a razzle-dazzle opening of flash sounds and images, today's site from
The Exploratorium, features a stimulating exhibit on global climate change.
Gentle Subscribers concerned about the environment will find a lively
presentation of informative material.
"What are the possible implications of continued global climate change? ...
The effects of climate change on plants and animals are difficult to
measure, but potentially dramatic ... At this Web site, you can explore
scientific data relating to the atmosphere, the oceans, the areas covered
by ice and snow, and the living organisms in all these domains. You'll also
get a sense of how scientists study natural phenomena -- how researchers
gather evidence, test theories, and come to conclusions." - from the
website
The site is divided into areas such as atmosphere, biosphere and cryosphere
and how each may be affected by climate change. Each section includes a
glossary of relevant terms, vivid charts of scientific data coupled with
clear explanations, as well as responses to logical questions arising from
the data. Additional links to related, authoritative sites are also
provided.
